DUN COLT - with STALLION POTENTIAL
This quality colt carries not only the excellent Millfield bloodlines but also he is one of the last ponies by the late Tiercel Top Cat. A lovely compact pony-type who carries himself beautifully and should excel not only in the show ring but in competition too. With Atlantic Swirl and Wisbridge Erinmore in his pedigree he is definitely stallion potential.

He has lovely fluid paces is very well proportioned with good bone. His carriage is proud and upstanding, and he is athletic with super straight paces and lovely conformation. He has a very sweet nature and should make around 14hh - which is an ideal size to use on larger mares.
One for the future - with the best of the past in his outstanding bloodlines.

CLASSY CHOCOLATE
DUN FILLY
with elegant flowing paces
Einin has grown into a lovely chunky Connemara yearling, with good bone and limbs, sweet nature and a typical pony head with wide brow and gentle eyes.
She is very inquisitive and gets into everything - following me around the field tipping up the muck barrow!
She has active and correct old-fashioned paces, using herself nicely at trot - she would easily trot over the rough terrain in Connemara - and covers the ground at canter. Einin will surely make a really super riding pony, as she not only has a good dose of native intelligence but also their toughness and generosity.
Beautifully proportioned yearling who carries wonderful old Irish breeding through Hazel Dun to Thunderbolt, and through Ashfield Mactalla to Ormond Oliver as well as the sought-after Sparrow jumping lines through Wise Sparrow (the dam of the great European International jumping sire Ashfield Bobby Sparrow)

Well put together with straight action and lovely elastic trot, she should do well in the show ring as a youngster, and certainly make a fabulous competition pony with her fantastic Connemara jumping bloodlines.
As you can see from the videos, she has a good length of stride, overtracking in her purposeful walk, and stretching out well at canter - she has a terrific turn of speed too!

on Ahfield Mactalla’s (sire of Grianagh Petrus) progeny -a member of Silver Medal British Event Team 2009
One of the video clips shows Tallula (Lula) & Einin (Nini) - Nini is the first you see, with Lula coming up second at speed. At the end of the clip Lula is the playful one, and Nini trots off!
For breeding, as she is buckskin she does carry one cream gene, so if put to a bay stallion she will produce half buckskin, half bay progeny.
Also, because both her parents were buckskin, she does not carry the grey gene, so by covering her with a bay stallion, she would not produce grey offspring.
